"While we have grappled with many of the same labor shortages that the rest of the U.S. economy is facing due to the pandemic, we have seen a slow but steady rebound in both drilling and oil & gas support service employment in 2022.

In 2021, the solar industry added 17,212 jobs, 5.4% year-over-year growth and the wind sector added 3,347 jobs, an increase of 2.9% compared to 2020.

Duh

No 💩

It's unfortunate that politicians are trying to make engineering decisions. Politicians do not understand energy requirements for a healthy US economy. As a result, our economy will overrun by China who will take advantage of this foolishness.

Many businesses will close permanently, start with the gas stations.

Now cut the same amount of Federal Government jobs….

Thanks Joke Biden

Where’s all those high paying solar panel jobs?!

Biden is doing everything he can to destroy the US oil & gas industry. He’s lying and he knows he’s lying. He and dems don’t care how much destruction they cause in food shortages and runaway inflation around the world.
